Camellias generally prefer a sheltered position, with soil that doesn't completely dry out but also doesn't remain water logged. Planting them beside a house or fence may provide suitable shelter.

It is about 4 years old, 1 metre high. The leaves are a mixture of yellow/green/brown tips, few flowers and buds which constantly drop off. The plant is in sun, morning till night. Should I replant it? If so where/when in order to establish a superb specimen. I have inherited what I think is a camellia (williamsii).
